Well, still, you should ask in an apache forum :-)

I´ve once solved that by the virtualhost block (http://webmail var directed

well, ^means start of line, but the rewrites I´ve got examples of and are
using at work says ^admin so that´s cleary the query_string, not the entire
URL. (I haven´t used mod_rewite at all until this week...)

And as I see it nothing come close to what you want here:
http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.0/misc/rewriteguide.html, so maybe it´s not
possible?

or you do this: RewriteRule ^(.*)$  https://yoursite.com$1

This should catch everything in the query_string and save it in $1, maybe
that works?

[PHP] mod_rewrite...https index page -> http index page

[John Corry]

My apologies, this is not strictly PHP...but it is relevant to a great
number of PHP application frameworks that many of us use or will use.

I have a Magento installation that relies heavily on mod_rewrite. For the
most part, I have all of my canonical URLs worked out, minus one issue.

How do I make sure that https:// requests for / are redirected to http:// /
?

I've got a rule already that strips the index.php off of requests, so I
don't want to check for that...just want to check for requests for the
https:// version of my root home page and redirect to the non-secure
version.

I suck with regex and all of my attempts to modify examples I've found have
failed.

Another alternative, if mod_rewrite confuses you as much as it does me...

.htaccess

  ForceType application/x-httpd-php

DocumentIndex folder

folder


On the plus side, this doesn't force people into example.com when they
went to www.example.com -- It just works. :-)

PS

I you do stick with mod_rewrite, turn mod_rewrite_debug *ON* and tail
-f your http error_log for awhile.

You'll learn a lot about what will/won't work for mod_rewrite in your
rules...

The warnings about mod_rewrite debugging/logging performance issues
are a bit over-stated, I think...

Or, at least, you need to do this on a development server with "real"
traffic patterns for your testing, if doing it live is a non-option.

Doing it on only the URLs *you* think of typing doesn't count.  Those
pesky real users can come up with some really interesting URLs to
type... :-)

I'm not an expert on the topic by any stretch of the imagination, but I seem

performance reasons. You may want to investigate that, but otherwise I don't
see anything wrong with what you're doing.

Unfortunately, yes... I am using a CMS, and my current setup is forcing me
into using the more complicated mod_rewrite.

Well, not that it is a bad thing... seems like mod_rewrite is more
search-engine/bot friendly.

Thanks for the tip though, I really appreciate your time.

Hi all... sorry if this is OT for PHP list... Maybe a reply off-list?

I just wanted to share my .htaccess file in the hopes that I can

Here is what I got so far...

I start by turning-on error reporting, then I am converting all non www
traffic to www traffic, and I finish things up by removing "index.php" from
the site url...

[code] -->

# Turn-on PHP error messaging:
php_value display_errors 1
php_value error_reporting 2047

# Power-up the rewrite engine:
RewriteEngine on

# Redirect all non-www traffic:
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^mydomain\.com$
RewriteRule ^.*$ http://www.mydomain.com%{REQUEST_URI} [R=permanent,L]

# Remove index.php from url:
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteRule ^(.+) index.php/$1 [L]


<-- [/code]

What I want to do:

I would like to use mod_rewrite to forward all requests for
http://www.mydomain.com (or http://mydomain.com) to
www.mydomain.com/folder/file.php

Questions:

1. How is my code looking so far? Any potential pitfalls that you can see?
2. Can I combine the conditions and rules into one, more compact, script?
3. Any suggestions on how I would go about adding-in a rule/condition to
redirect users to "com/folder/file.php" as stated above?


Do you need to do it with a mod_rewrite?

if not, you can do it easily in php:

header('location: folder/file.php');
exit();

in index.php.

I found the source of my mod_rewrite problems. I was doing everything  
right to start with - The odd behaviour was due to a PHP bug (http:// 
bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=35059) that's fixed in 4.4.2-dev and 5.1.0RC7- 
dev (I'd assume 5.0.x as well). Recompiling with a new checkout works

Yup, I tried this and it kind-of works, but still leads to some weird  
behaviour.



INSTEAD, do this.

Create a PHP script, and name it 'x'

In .htaccess, force 'x' to be PHP as far as Apache is concerned:

  ForceType application/x-httpd-php


You can now access your "x=123" from $_SERVER['PATHINFO'] (or is it
'PATH_INFO'?

No more endless tweaking of Regex rules in httpd.conf and logging the
mod_rewrite and dinking with ^/[0-9]+ junk and re-starting Apache
every time you want to try a change.


That's a nice trick - I'll have to remember that. My rules are  
in .htaccess (as seems normal for 'deployable' systems) so I don't  
need to restart apache and it's easy to twiddle with them, and  
besides, I like regexes ;^) The issue isn't really the passing of  
parameters (which your approach deals with very nicely), it's that  
PHP gets fooled into thinking that it's somewhere that it's not. The  
most annoying thing about this problem is that I'm sure it should  
'just work', and I know I've seen it do so before in both my scripts  
and others - Serendipity has an almost identical setup for rewrites  
and it doesn't do anything special to work with them - all this  
futzing with paths that mod_rewrite does is long finished by the time  
that PHP gets to hear about anything - PHP never has to know the real  
URL, it should be happy to deal with the rewritten one.


The problem seems to be that given the incoming URL:

/x/123

this gets rewritten to

/x.php?x=123

and it does run the correct script in the correct directory, however,  
once it's running PHP acts as if it had said:


/x/x.php?x=123

Which just breaks paths everywhere. I know that this is what the  
passthrough option is supposed to deal with, but removing it doesn't  
help either. Maybe I should look more carefully at my RewriteBase etc.


I've asked in sitepoint apache forums too, see if anyone there has  
any idea.


Thanks for the ideas.

If it's in the top level directory, then maybe that directory should
be hard-coded into the include_path, as well as '.'

include_path
".:/whatever/httpd.conf/has/for/DocumentRoot:/full/path/to/PEAR"

This all rules out the above, but one possibility is this:

In just the script that gives you trouble do this:

include_path("/full/path/to/DocumentRoot:" . include_path());
This may not be the right syntax/function to set include_path, but it
is a dynamic way to set the include path, from within PHP.

Of course, for the multiple deployments, you'll need to make the path
based on the deployment somehow.


Now, on to the simple solution I intimated at the beginning...

If mod_rewrite is giving you the headaches it gives me, just get rid
of it. :-)

INSTEAD, do this.

Create a PHP script, and name it 'x'

In .htaccess, force 'x' to be PHP as far as Apache is concerned:

  ForceType application/x-httpd-php


You can now access your "x=123" from $_SERVER['PATHINFO'] (or is it
'PATH_INFO'?

Good point (you can tell I've been up too long). I've just had a play  
with that - I appended the current path to my include_path, but it  
seems it's not inherited, so sub-includes are not found. I also tried  
chdir(dirname(__FILE__)) which had the same results and interferes  
with the operation of require_once (the same file found by a  
different path doesn't get counted as the same file). Incidentally  
doing just 'echo getcwd();' seems to fail completely when called via  
a rewrite. After all that, smarty still can't find its templates_c  
for some reason. I'm sure there must be something simple and elegant  
I'm missing. Probably a good night's sleep.

[PHP] mod_rewrite and include paths

[Marcus Bointon]

This seems like a simple problem...

I have a rewrite like this:

RewriteRule ^x/([0-9]+) x.php?x=$1 [PT,L]

This maps a url like http://www.example.com/x/123 to http:// 
www.example.com/x.php?x=123


x.php contains a line to include some class like:

require_once 'x.class.php';

My include path contains '.' (plus paths to pear, etc), and the class  
file is in the top level directory.


This configuration will fail with a file not found error. Because of  
the rewrite, PHP ends up looking for x/x.class.php instead of just  
x.class.php. If I change the PT option to R (AKA ugly mode), it works  
fine as PHP gets to know about the real URL.


So how can I get PHP to look in /? I can set include_path with a  
php_value in .htaccess, but I can only set it absolutely (losing  
existing values), not add to it (AFAIK?). I don't want to add an  
absolute path to my global include_path as there may be multiple  
independent deployments of the same scripts on the server, and I  
don't want them including each others files. Adding .. to the path  
would work but is a security risk. Any other ideas?

I should think all those .* should be .+ instead...

I mean, if somebody surfs to this URL:

http://example.com//example.video


There's nothing really wrong with a URL like that, and I used to do  
the same thing until I discovered another fly in this particular  
ointment. Should source URLs like these ever appear in Microsoft  
Outlook, they are likely to get 'corrected', for example a URL that  
goes in as:


http://example.com//example.video

When you click it, you're quite likely to have it go to:

http://example.com/example.video

thus completely missing all your mod_rewrite patterns. This is why we  
love MS so. I've taken up using _ as a pattern separator as a  
workaround.


There's also a very nasty bug in current mod_rewrite (at least in  
Apache 2.0.54) where mod_rewrite url decodes submatches between input  
and output URLs, so for example:


RewriteRule ^(.*) blah.php?x$1

if you feed that a URL that contains a URL encoded value like 'Hello% 
20there', your resulting URL will be: 'blah.php?x=Hello there', which  
is obviously broken.

Could you come up with a simplified example that causes the error,
so it could be tested on other systems. I was able to have
something like:

 RewriteRule ^(.*)/(.*)/$ /index.php?f=$1&b=$2 [L]

And accessing /foo/bar/ It worked like a charm with: 
   $_GET['f'] == '/foo' and $_GET['b'] == 'bar'

When I used the ../../index.php it would cause a 400 Bad Request,
i'm not clear on how your are doing your relative paths.

yeah, this makes me wonder if there are issues with the fink binary
you are using. Is the web server going to get upgraded to 2.x as
well?  I know that php has a completely different way to talk with
the 1.x vs 2.x which can complicate the issue a bit.

You can set:

  RewriteLogLevel 9 #where 9 is the most verbose

I'm not really sure what this means, it is related to the
./configure options for apache  --enable-optional-hook*, i have no
clue what that does.

http://example.com//example.video

Do you really want that to hit ../../phpscript.php

This probably will not fix your bug, mind you, but it's probably worth
trying just to see.

I think you could also lose all those ()s in the Regex, as you don't
seem to be doing anything with them.  Or perhaps mod_rewrite collects
them and passes them in to phpscript.php somehow?

You could also consider using:
[^/]* instead of . because, after all, .* does match /, so maybe you
are confusing the Regex so that:
//example.video actually matches your pattern, even though you
really don't want it to.

I haven't used mod_rewrite enough to know what pattern system it uses,
so I could be full of [bleep] here.

If all else fails, consider not using mod_rewrite at all, and having a
ForceType on some convenient directory to change that directory into a
PHP script.

For example, suppose you now have:
~/videos/*.video
with a zillion video files in there for the *

mkdir video_files
mv videos/*.video video_files
rmdir videos
cp phpscript.php videos
echo -e "\nForceType application/x-httpd-php\n"
> .htaccess

Now, your "videos" directory is *REALLY* your phpscript.php, but it
just *looks* like a directory in the URL.

You'd need to change phpscript.php to read the videos (or whatever it
does to them) from "/video_files/" instead of where they are now.

[PHP] mod_rewrite, apache2, php5RC1 and osx bsd

[Dan Rossi]

Hi there, ive been having issues with mod_rewrite and apache2 with PHP 
5.1RC1. I have googled the php bugs and people have been experiencing 
the same issue however the php people cant see to reproduce the bug. 
Its most definately doing it for me, here is a rewrite rule i have 
setup, if i [L] to a php script, it either tries to download the faked 
url file or hangs.  I reverted back to 5.1.0b2 and it works fine ?? 
What do i do ?


RewriteRule ^(.*)/(.*)/(.*)/(.*)/(.*)/(.+\.(video))$ ../../phpscript.php

Hmm.. I guess I'll have to try it out to understand what's going on.
I've never run across the problem myself.

When using mod_rewrite, if the rewrite rule does not include a
pass-through, then the query string is not passed on to the script in
question. So, if you request the page directly with:

http://www.mysite.com/page.php?id=1

it will process correctly, but if you have a rewrite rule that doesn't
have the pass-through flag, then when the URL is _rewritten_ to the above,
the page is requested _without_ the query string -- even though the rule
rewrites the URL with a query string.

A rule that would (probably) work would look something like this:

RewriteRule page/(.*) /page.php?id=$1 [L,PT]

Now you've lost me. Those two statements seem to be in opposition to one
another. You can't get $id with $_GET but
http://www.mysite.com/page.php?id=1 works just fine? The URL is a "GET"
URL since it has a querystring.

[PHP] mod_rewrite and getting url variables

[Ospinto]

I used mod_rewrite to change http://www.mysite.com/page/1 to
http://www.mysite.com/page.php?id=1 to enable a search friendly url.
Everything works fine, except that when I try to get the URL variable ($id)
by using $_GET, it doesn't return anything. With
http://www.mysite.com/page.php?id=1 it gets $id just fine. I thought the
mod_rewrite would keep the url variables??? If not, I know the alternative
would be to get the whole url as a string and change it to an array by using
the "/" as the delimiter and obtain $id from that. But I'd rather go that
way if there's no other alternative.
The .htaccess file has the following commands:

RewriteEngine On
RewriteRule ^page/([0-9]+)/?$ page.php?id=$1 [L]

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks.

[PHP] mod_rewrite Issues

[Stephen Craton]

This isn't exactly a PHP issue, but they seem to go rather hand in hand...
 
Right now I'm just running my own apache server on my computer and I'm
trying to protect my scripts using mod_rewrite. I uncommented all the
mod_rewrite lines in the apache configuration file and restarted it all. I
got no errors doing this, so I assume it compiled fine.
 
The problem is, I can put a rewrite rule in the httpd.conf file or a
.htaccess file but it never rewrites any URLs... For example:
 
RewriteEngine on
RewriteRule ^/woot$ /beta
 
I tried that as a test in a .htaccess file and put it in my root C:\htdocs
folder. I went to http://localhost/woot but it didn't show anything, gave me
a 404. I went to http://localhost/beta and it showed exactly what it was
supposed to. I assume it's something I'm doing wrong with my code, but I've
followed this sitepoint article to the point pretty much. Any help here
would be greatly appreciated...

[PHP] mod_rewrite is acting up!!

[John]

ok, i had mod_rewrite working perfect: whenever some one entered
www.url.com/browse/Pop/10 it would go to
www.url.com/browse.php?category=Pop&id=10

Then I created an actual browse folder in the site root with index.php as
the only file in that folder to take over the position of the browse.php
file. and now it doesnt work at all. Now, whenever someone visits
www.url.com/browse/Pop/15, I want it to go to
www.url.com/browse/index.php?category=Pop&id=10 but it doesnt work. Instead,
it sends it to somewhere like this:
http://www.url.com/browse/index.php?category=index.php

What the hell is going on??

What you see in phpweb is what you get, there is no
mod_rewrite, just a huge 404 handler.  For the related

[PHP] mod_rewrite & open_basedir & pear

[Alexei Tenitski]

Hi

Can anyone please help me with a following problem.

There's a script which uses PEAR library (namely, DB class)

getMessage());

var_dump($db);

?>


When i execute it everything is ok.

BUT when i access this script via redirect by mod_rewrite
it throws an error that open_basedir settings don't allow
this require to be made 

.htaccess:
RewriteEngine on
RewriteRule   test2.php  /~xaxa/test/test3.php [L]

test2.php,test3.php contain the code that i quoted above

error:

Warning:  open_basedir restriction in effect. File is in wrong directory
in /home/xaxa/public_html/test/test3.php on line 4

Fatal error:  Failed opening required 'DB.php'
(include_path='.:/usr/local/lib/php') in
/home/xaxa/public_html/test/test/test3.php on line 4



Is there any way to overcome this problem?

mod_rewrite is used to _hide_ urls from users and to _extend_ url with
additional params.

[PHP] mod_rewrite

[[ rswfire ]]

I could really use your help with this.  The examples I have received from 
everyone thus far have not worked, including the last one that you posted.  
This is the situation:

I have multiple domains, each with multiple subdomains, all of which 
automatically point to the root of my web environment.  I have only one file 
that does all of the work for all of these websites/webpages, and that is 
the index.php file in the root.  This file is smart enough to parse the url 
being accessed and create an appropriate page based on a very complex set of 
rules.

Originally, I was using the ErrorDocument 404 to make it access the 
index.php file, but this has some inherent flaws.  The biggest problem was 
that forms that were being posted to a page that doesn't really exist never 
maintained the posted variables (due to the 404 redirect.)  Another 
limitation was that it just created a bunch of unnecessary error messages in 
my error log since there are no "real pages" on my network, even though it 
pretends there is.

So, I need to use mod_rewrite.  That is apparent now.  The problem is I know 
nothing about creating regular expressions.  I simply need it to rewrite the 
url for any file that does not exist (it should not try to do so for a file 
that really does exist, say an image file) and it needs to have the 
following rule:

A*.B*.C*/D*.E*

Where A is a subdomain; B is the domain name; C is the top level domain; D/E 
are a file or directory.

Some examples would be:

http://www.swifte.net/
http://www.cao.swifte.net/petition-sign.html
http://hsdnetwork.swifte.net/technicians.html
http://www.hsdnetwork.swifte.net/technicians.html
http://www.caofund.org/
http://www.hsdnetwork.com/

Can you tell me how to do this?  I would appreciate your help so much!!

Do you have access to your server's error_log file? With any luck there'll
be a more informative message there (something like "Miguel was too lazy

I'm hosting with a third party.What will their reaction to this be.
Has anyone done this sort of thing and is it advisable.
I don't want to redirect from a 404 page as there's a search engine issue with that.
As a side issue,there may be a lot of database updating

any real world examples of the performance of mysql?I know it's great for selects.

Good point, felix...

I didn't even think of catch-all DNS domains...  I don't know how to set
them up, but I'm sure with a catch-all and mod_rewrite, you can
accomplish something useful.

Check google for "catch all dns" or something of the like.

But if I assign VirtualHost users.body-builders.org using DNS of 
www.body-builders.org (the onli one I have) all visitors will go to 
www.body-builders.org and not to users.body-builders.org?

Thank you,

Subdomains are first a DNS issue...  The first place you have to go is
your DNS config, since users.body-builders.org wouldn't exist without an
A or CNAME record.

I don't know if mod_rewrite can do anything about the subdomains like
that, if it can't, you will have to add VirtualHost directives to
httpd.conf for each subdomain.

Subject: [PHP] mod_rewrite


I have a website URL www.body-builders.org and users have URLs 
like www.body-builders.org/user According to the virtual hosting 
rules I can do any configuration tweaks by .htaccess file.

What I want to do is to offer my users URLs like users.body-
builders.org Is it possible to do with rewrite rules in .htaccess?

I tried this in my .htaccess but it doesnt help - 

RewriteEngine   on
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST}^users\.body-builders\.org$
RewriteRule ^.*$http://www.body-
builders.org/users/indexr.php [L]

Youri

PS there are three lines in code.

Having just spent about 16 hours fighting with mod_rewrite to try and
replace broken DefaultType on FreeBSD, I feel your pain :-)

My thinking in this case is:  It really doesn't make sense to have either ^
or $ here, since you really don't care what you start or end with.  So, you
probably just want:

RewriteRule (.*) /start.php?go=$1

Except, of course, that will be an infinite loop, since that matches
start.php?go=index.html as well.

So, what I think you *really* want is:

RewriteRule ^/start\.php.* - [L]
RewriteRule (.*) /start.php?go=$1

Translation:
#1  If we are surfing to "/start.php?blahblahblah", then use the URL as-is
"-" and stop playing these silly rewrite games "[L]"
#2 Any URL that reaches this rule, wasn't one of our start.php hacks, so
redirect to start.php

You may need or want a [R] on the end of that second rule...

[PHP] mod_rewrite starts driving me crazy ...

[Maxim Maletsky]

Hello guys,

I know it is not exactly a PHP problem, it is about apache's mod_rewrite
which after 4 hours of tentative till 3.30am starts making me think that I
need a LONG vacation ...

I know it's easy... I read all the docs dozens of times and I *feel* that I
am very close to the solution ... please help. ...



Here:
my system: Win2k, Apache 1.3.14, (my test server)
my problem:

in the virtual host of httpd.conf I added the following:

RewriteEngine On
RewriteRule   ^(/index.html)$  /start.php?go=$1  

This works perfectly, however what I really need to do is to make it work
not only with /index.html but with everything typed in your browser...
(index.html was only a test to let me know I am in a right direction)

I tried:


RewriteRule   ^(.*)  /start.php?go=$1
RewriteRule   ^(.*)$  /start.php?go=$1
RewriteRule   ^(.+)  /start.php?go=$1
RewriteRule   ^(.+)$  /start.php?go=$1

RewriteRule   ^(/.*)  /start.php?go=$1
RewriteRule   ^(/.*)$  /start.php?go=$1
RewriteRule   ^(/.+)  /start.php?go=$1
RewriteRule   ^(/.+)$  /start.php?go=$1


...non of these worked    while something's telling me it had to

Is that a flag that I need ?
(I've tried some combinations of these - didn't work either, I think I need
to confirm it by someone)

please help me with that, I know many of you have done it already... or I am
going to dream about apachectl restart tonight 

Sincerely,

 Maxim Maletsky
